If you outlaw Stem Cells only outlaws will have Stem Cells

If this is true its the most morbid thing I have seen in my lifetime.


Ukraine babies in stem cell probe
By Matthew Hill
BBC Health Correspondent

Cells under microscope
There is heated debate about the ethics of using stem cells
Healthy new-born babies may have been killed in Ukraine to feed a flourishing international trade in stem cells, evidence obtained by the BBC suggests.

Disturbing video footage of post-mortem examinations on dismembered tiny bodies raises serious questions about what happened to them.

Ukraine has become the self-styled stem cell capital of the world.

There is a trade in stem cells from aborted foetuses, amid unproven claims they can help fight many diseases.

But now there are claims that stem cells are also being harvested from live babies.

Wall of silence

The BBC has spoken to mothers from the city of Kharkiv who say they gave birth to healthy babies, only to have them taken by maternity staff.

In 2003 the authorities agreed to exhume around 30 bodies of foetuses and full-term babies from a cemetery used by maternity hospital number six.

One campaigner was allowed into the autopsy to gather video evidence. She has given that footage to the BBC and Council of Europe.

In its report, the Council describes a general culture of trafficking of children snatched at birth, and a wall of silence from hospital staff upwards over their fate.

The pictures show organs, including brains, have been stripped - and some bodies dismembered.

A senior British forensic pathologist says he is very concerned to see bodies in pieces - as that is not standard post-mortem practice.

It could possibly be a result of harvesting stem cells from bone marrow.

Hospital number six denies the allegations.

They also harvest organs from political prisoners... whilst they are still alive.

People think China is such a great emerging economic power and forget that the gov there is still fasco-commie.

Do dictatorships create Kleptocracy? When I deal with people from communist or former communist countries like anything former USSR, China ect I get beat to death on the most minor details but they don't hesitate to let me twist if they fail to tell me something....like the truth. Personally I stay away from international customers because of this they feel as if everyone is trying to draw blood from them while they play innocent by stander while they are the ones that put a dagger into you back at the last minute. A few months ago I had a guy that beat me to death on price and tried some goofy stuff at the last minute so I choose to stand back let him kick someone else's ass.

It seems that these people will do almost anything for the smallest amount of money, I have a saying that every man has his price for almost anything people from the former USSR seem to have a very low price threshold on integrity.

I'm afraid this stuff isn't going away any time soon. With populations swelling, and the reality that most countries are going to have an abundance of unproductive, criminal, or otherwise undesirable people, the option of getting rid of them and making, what, up to $100K from spare parts all in one fell swoop is going to be attractive to petty tryants.
